Chapter eight: Nervous, Yet Happy

Inuyasha rolled out of bed around seven-thirty. He rubbed his eyes and looked to his left. No Kagome. He shot up. Were is her scent? He got up quickly and followed the sound of running water. He opened the bathroom door and saw a couple of figures in the shower. Wait? Two figures! The last time he checked Kagome was only one person. He opened the shower curtain to find... Kagome and Koga! LOL That doesn't sound right! Does it!

No never! Thats was just humor. Now to the real story.

Real story

Inuyasha rolled over to find a peacful sleeping girl beside him. He gently brushed his lips against hers as he slightly moved closer to him. Inuyasha looked at the clock and realized the time was drawing near. Inuyasha shook Kagome a bit and said softly, " Kagome. Kagome. It's about that time. Kagome!" Inuyasha shook a little harder.

" Wha... What is it Puppy?" Kagome moaned.

" It's about that time."

" What time?" Kagome asked pulling the covers over her head.

" Sango and Miroku's wedding!" Inuyasha growled.

" WHAT!" Kagome shot out of the bed. " It's already April fifth!"

" Yup." Inuyasha got out of the bed and walked to the closet. " Grab your dress and get to the car." Inuyasha grabbed his tuxedo and walked to the living room. " Mrs. Higurashi is taking the kids to the church." "Now all I have to do is get her to the church." Inuyasha mumbled.

" Alright lets go." Kagome had her dress and make up utensils in her big duffle bag. " Inuyasha come on!" Kagome ran to the car.

Inuyasha followed and laughed at his beautiful fi'ancee. He jumped in and drove off to the church were they are to meet Sango and Miroku.

Sango and Miroku

Sango was in her dressing room getting her make up on. She heard the door behind her open and close. She turned around and found the smiling face of her best friend.

" Thank goodness you're here Kagome!" Sango jumped up and hugged her friend. " I was worried if you were even coming." She laughed a little.

" Of course I was gonna come! It's only 9:00 we have time." Kagome sat her friend down and tried to fix her hair. " Sango you're a mess." Kagome laughed and finished up. "Done!"

Sango turned and found her hair pulled in a tight bun with white diamond clips holding it up. Sango's eyes lit up. " It's beautiful Kagome!" Sango hugged Kagome again and sat down.

"It's okay to be nervous Sango." Kagome sat by Sango. " Everyone gets nervous on the big day."

Sango smiled and lifted her arm. " Well it's 9:30. Wonder were your mom is?" Just as these words left her mouth, Mrs. Higurashi walked in.

" Mom!" Kagome shouted standing up. " You look great!" Mrs. Higurashi was wearing a beautiful green dress with small white pearls and earrings that match.

" Well thank you dear. Now how about you? Kagome go get ready. I'll do your hair and make up when you return." Mrs. Higurashi rushed Kagome out and turned to Sango.

" Mrs. Higurashi i'm.." Sango was cut off.

" Everyone gets scared and nervous dear. It's alright. I was. The day ( okay her husbands name is unclear. So one I made up.) Tokibe purposed to me I was thrilled! Two months later I was sitting in my room being just as nervous as you. I then realized that it didn't matter if I was nervous or scared, but that I was about to marry the man that I loved and that loved me. That made everything better. Sango you're about to marry a man who loves you and that you love. You're gonna be so happy you walked down that asle." Mrs. Higurashi smiled and touched Sango's hand. " Still nervous?"

Sango smiled and shook her head. " No ma'am. I am very pleased to have spoke with you. Thank you so much. I am now ready to marry the man I love." Tears in Mrs. Higurahsi's eyes appeared as she hugged Sango.

" I'm glad. Now lets get your dress on." Sango stood and went to get dressed.

Two hours later everyone was ready for the wedding. Kagome walked in the room were Inuyasha was. She opened the door to check on the little ones.

" Ready guys?" Kagome asked.

" Grrrrr." Kirara growled.

" And girls." Kagome laughed.

" Then yes!" Kirara's face lit up and turned to a bright smile.

" Great. Hey were's Miroku and Inuyasha?" Kagome asked walking in further.

" Out on the balcony thinking." Sota replied.

" Thanx Sota." Kagome walked to the balcony to see Inuyasha and Miroku chatting.

She stood at the door listening quietly. (easedropping's not good, but hey.

Balcony: Inuyasha and Miroku's chat

" I don't know Miroku. All I can say is if you love her marry her."

" Inuyasha easy as it sounds I would love too. I'm nervous. Really nervous. I am afraid I won't make her happy."

" Miroku please. If you really love her then man go for it!" Inuyasha patted him on the back. " You will make her happy. She loves you. Kagome says so all the time. Like the way she looks at you and how you light up her smile when she's down." Inuyasha finished.

" How do you feel about marring Kagome?" Miroku asked.

Kagome's ears extended at this question. She leaned forward to hear better. Inuyasha started to answer.

" Well Miroku I honestly can't wait. I want to finally be able to have a child with her. To finally call her my own. Not just a girlfriend, friend, or fi'ancee, but wife. I want her to finally be my wife." Inuyasha replied stareing at the sky.

Kagome's eyes widened and filled with tears. She was so happy to hear this.

Inuyasha continued. " She makes me happy. Whenever I am down her smile and cheer brightens my day. She's always there when I need her. She was and is always by my side. She never seems to distance herself when I anger her. She always comes to me and tries to calm everything down. She has that control, that abilitly to make me happy. Something I haven't had since forever." Inuyasha turned to Miroku. " Now does Sango do any of those things? Does she make you feel the way Kagome makes me feel?"


Miroku turned aroud to face his best friend. " Inuyasha I have to say... yes. Sango makes me has happy as you make it sound. Everthing she does brightens my day. She makes me soo happy. I love her."

Kagome was in tears and finally came out. " Miroku you should know that she loves you just as much. She feels the same way. She tells me all the time that you make her feel as if she finally has a true family. You and her brother amke her whole."

Inuyasha turned to face Kagome. " Kagome." Inuyasha gazed at her. 'Did she hear me? Of couse she did.'

Kagome waked toward Miroku and hugged him. "Don't woory she is happy with you and you make her feel complete. She has no regret accepting you purposal. Neither do I." Kagome turned to Inuyasha and kissed him. " I can't wait either."

" Thank you Mrs. Kagome. " Miroku stood up, hugged Kagopme, and walked in the room Kagome came out of.

" Time to go." Kagome grabbed Inu's hand and walked in the room too.

Kagome walked the kids to Mrs. Higurashi. " Mom here they are." Kagome handed them to her mom and they sat down quietly. Mrs. Higurashi took the kids and smiled to Kagome.

" Alright dear. Now go before they start."

" Yes mom." Kagome walked to the back and watched everyone be seated. After this they lined up. Kagome stood with Inuyasha, there was noone else to so this was the only couple. Kirara was our flower girl.( yeah i messed up. No worries. -) Kirara started to move down the alse as soon as the music started to play. She was so pretty as she threw the petals on the bid red carpet. Shippo stared at her as she gracefully moved past him.

' She is so pretty.' Shippo thought and recalled the moment he told her he loved her.

Flashback

"Kirara can I speak with you?"

" Sure Shippo what's up?" Kirara followed Shippo out to the front yard. (This was shortly after they arrived in Kagome's era.)

" Kirara I have... well I have always... I.." Shippo stuttered.

" Shippo what is it?" Kirara walked to his side and stood there.

" I lov...I... KiraraIloveyou!" He said this in a big bunddle of words.

" You what?" Kirara blushed.

" I lov... I love you Kirara!" Shippo embraced her and kissed her cheek.

" I love you too." they stayed in an embrace for a while, then walked back to the house.

End of flashback

' Yup. Just like I planned.' Shippo thought smiling.

Mrs. Higurashi sat down by Kohaku and Shippo and watched Kirara. Kirara walked to the front and turned to face Kagome and Inuyasha walk down.

" Inuyasha."

" Yeah Kagome?"

" I can't wait til our wedding." She blushed and gripped his arm. " I love you Inuyasha and always will."

Inuyasha looked over to his beautiful fi'ancee and replied, " Kagome I love you too. I also can't wait. I have waited too long. I want you to be mine soon."

Kagome blushed and parted from him. She blew him a kiss and he caught it. She smiled and he mouthed, 'I love you.'

He smiled and faced off toward Miroku who was patienatly waiting for his bride to come down. Sango appeared with Kagome's granpa by her side. The music played and they slowly started down the asle. Sango's tears appeared as she thought of the wonderful times ahead of her and her husband-to-be.
